They went around to the back of the Hall of Virtue and Government and arrived at a pier where a few boats were docked.
On one of the delicate-looking boats, a handsome young man in his mid-twenties was sitting on a wooden chair at the bow of the boat.
He looked rather leisurely and contented, enjoying the Cloudy Mist Tea produced in the depths of the Southern Border mountains.
Seeing the Little Devil, Jiang Feng, and Ling Yun walk over, the handsome young man hurriedly stood up.
After getting off the boat, he greeted them enthusiastically.
"Xiao Yue, you're finally back. I've been worried to death. I couldn't sleep at night while you were gone. If you hadn't returned, I would have gone to look for you myself. "
The handsome young man in his mid-twenties was very excited. He reached out his hand, wanting to hold the little demon's hand.
"Oh, it's Brother Tao. Why are you here? Did you specially come to pick me up?"
A sweet smile appeared on the little devil's face, but she stealthily took a step back.
"Yes, I heard that you were back early this morning, so I came here on behalf of Uncle to wait for you."
Liang Tao didn't feel awkward at all and withdrew his hand naturally.
After arriving here, Jiang Feng was captivated by the scenery here.
Therefore, he had no time to care about what the Little Devil and Liang Tao were talking about.
On the large lake surrounding the City Lord's Mansion, there were countless islands of different shapes and sizes scattered like stars in the sky.
Moreover, on these islands, there were not only lush plants, but also many birds, beasts, insects, and fish.
It was precisely because of this that this place was called the Thousand Island Lake. It could be said to be a famous scenic spot in Jingzhou City.
Ling Yun also looked at the Thousand Island Lake in the distance, turning a deaf ear to the other things around him.
"Is that so? Let's hurry up and go. By the way, how's my father now? Is he angry with me again? "
The Little Devil glanced around furtively and asked in a low voice.
At this moment, the Little Devil revealed a rare look of fear, which made everyone's jaws drop.
After all, the Little Devil was not afraid of anything.
He really couldn't understand what kind of person the Jingzhou City Lord was to make the Little Devil so cowardly.
"Xiao Yue, don't worry. I've already put in a good word for you in front of Uncle. Right now, I can't wait to worry about you. How would I have the time to blame you? "
Liang Tao gave the Little Devil a reassuring look, unknowingly expressing his hard work.
This would subconsciously make people feel grateful, and it would also increase their favorable impression of him.
"Hehe, that's good. Alright, let's go back and talk about it. "
The Little Devil patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Haha, it's not good to talk here. Brother Ling, please board the boat. Ah, this little brother is … "
Liang Tao's gaze finally shifted away from the Little Devil.
After seeing Ling Yun, Liang Tao invited him very politely.
Then, he saw Jiang Feng, who was at the very back, and he immediately felt a little surprised.
That was because the City Lord's residence usually did not receive guests. Other than the City Lord's good friends or trusted aides, no one else was allowed to go to Lake Heart Island.
If there was anything, they would usually have to wait at the Virtuous Government Hall.
Then, someone would go to the City Lord's residence to inform him, and after receiving the City Lord's instructions, they could carry out the corresponding treatment.
"What? Are you asking me? I'm … "
Jiang Feng, who was in a daze, finally woke up when he heard Liang Tao's question. He subconsciously cupped his fists and was about to answer.
"Lake Heart Island does not allow outsiders to enter. Brother, please wait here for a while."
Before Jiang Feng could finish speaking, Liang Tao interrupted him.
In fact, Liang Tao had long noticed Jiang Feng.
After all, the Little Devil, Ling Yun, and Jiang Feng had come together, but they did not know Jiang Feng. This was easily noticed by Liang Tao.
If that was all, it would not be a big deal.
However, when Liang Tao saw the intimate action between Jiang Feng and the Little Devil, his narrow chest immediately burned with boundless jealousy.
"Err, do you think I want to go? It's all because of Big Missy. She dragged me along. Since it's not possible, then forget it. "
Jiang Feng did not feel angry when he saw Liang Tao's attitude. Instead, he looked at the Little Devil and spread his hands helplessly with an innocent look on his face.
"Brother Tao, this is my good friend. Why can't he go to Lake Heart Island? How can you say that?"
The Little Devil stood in front of Jiang Feng with an ugly expression.
"Alright, since he's Xiao Yue's friend, I can't say much. Let's all get on the boat."
Liang Tao saw that the Little Devil was standing up for Jiang Feng and did not want their relationship to be strained because of such a trivial matter.
Ling Yun and the Little Devil walked in front and boarded the exquisite boat one after another.
However, when Jiang Feng boarded the boat last, he was stopped by Liang Tao.
"This boat is exclusively used by the Liang family. You can take another boat."
Liang Tao stood at the bow and pointed to the dilapidated black awning boats not far away.
"Haha, the way Jing State City treats its guests has really opened my eyes. However, I quite like the black awning boats. They are close to nature and not pretentious. They also don't have the filthy smell of money in the secular world. "
Jiang Feng deliberately pretended to laugh, but the sarcasm in his words was very obvious.
Although he did not understand the reason, Jiang Feng was not the kind of person who would let others bully him, so he retaliated appropriately.
Liang Tao once again targeted him for no reason, making Jiang Feng feel a little uncomfortable.
With that, Jiang Feng turned and walked toward the black awning boat without giving Liang Tao a chance to refute.
Liang Tao, who was about to flare up, swallowed the words he was about to say. It was as if he had swallowed a dead fly. It was extremely uncomfortable.
"Brother Tao, is this how you treat my friend? Who cares about your broken boat? You treat it like a treasure and don't let others sit on it. Jiang Feng, wait for me. "
The Little Devil suddenly jumped down from the exquisite boat and wrinkled her nose slightly. She grumbled at Liang Tao and chased after Jiang Feng.
"Xiao Yue, why did you …"
Liang Tao did not expect the Little Devil to care so much about Jiang Feng. She actually ignored him and left.
Liang Tao clenched his fists tightly and gradually developed hatred for Jiang Feng.
"Wait for me too."
Ling Yun also suddenly jumped up from the exquisite boat. He said these words as if they were gold. His figure flashed and appeared beside Jiang Feng.
"Brother Ling, why are you also …"
The veins on Liang Tao's forehead bulged. He felt inexplicably angry.
When Jiang Feng saw the Little Devil follow him, it was as if he had eaten the sweetest nectar in the human world. He could not help but reveal a happy smile and felt very happy in his heart.
The Little Devil felt that Liang Tao had gone a bit too far and looked at Jiang Feng apologetically.
Jiang Feng shook his head a few times, indicating that he did not take it to heart.
Then he saw Ling Yun also come to the black awning boat. Jiang Feng inevitably felt a little surprised.
But Jiang Feng did not want to ask too much. After all, actions were more powerful than words.
Ling Yun nodded at Jiang Feng and did not say anything. He sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat and began to think quietly.
Seeing this, Jiang Feng cast a grateful look at Ling Yun.
The old wooden oars swayed and the shabby boat slowly drifted toward the island in the middle of the lake.
"Where the hell did this stinking brat come from? How dare he steal the woman I like? And that Ling Yun, he really doesn't know what's good for him. When the Jingzhou City changes hands, none of you will live. "
As he watched Jiang Feng and the others leave, Liang Tao's expression suddenly became ferocious. He was like a wolf tearing apart its sheepskin. He gnashed his teeth and cursed loudly.
After a while, Liang Tao finally calmed down.
When he returned to his usual gentle self, Liang Tao got someone to start the exquisite boat and also headed toward the island in the middle of the lake.
Along the way, there were different strange islands. Jiang Feng's eyes were dazzled and his mood improved. He chatted happily with Little Devil about many interesting things.
However, Ling Yun's eyes were tightly shut. No one knew what he was doing. It was as if he did not hear anything from the outside world.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Little Devil and the others finally arrived at the island in the middle of the lake after passing through countless winding waterways.
"Ah, Miss is finally back. Sister Lan, come over quickly. Miss is back. Ah, you don't have to pretend to cry to deceive Master anymore. "
A cute little girl was playing with the fish in the water by the lake. She suddenly saw the figure of Little Devil and the others and immediately jumped up in joy, shouting loudly.
"Stupid girl, don't try to lie to me anymore. If you lie again, don't blame me for telling on you. "
A slightly older girl was sitting on a stone bench under a jacaranda tree not far away. She held a needle and thread in her hand and was embroidering a Xiao Huang duck on a handkerchief.
When she heard what the little girl said, she scolded her without even lifting her head.
"Sister Lan, it's true this time. I'm not lying. Take a look if you don't believe me."
The little girl pouted and looked very innocent.
"This time, I won't believe you even if you spout some flowery words."
The slightly older girl shook her head gently and remained unmoved.
"Lan 'er, Zhu' er, your Miss is back. Come and welcome me quickly."
Little Devil saw the two little girls on the shore and instantly revealed a very happy smile.
"Ah, it really is Miss. You stupid girl, you're always lying. You've confused me."
"I told you Miss is really back. You just don't believe me."
Chunlan and Xia Zhu quarreled and ran toward Little Devil together.
